#2 Elodea and Photosynthesis by __________________ Name:_____________________ Class:_____________________ Teacher:_____________________ Date:_____________________ Elodea and Photosynthesis Introduction: Photosynthetic organisms (cyanobacteria) first evolved about 3.5 billion years ago and are the oldest know fossils on Earth. Cyanobacteria live in water‚ can manufacture their own food‚ and are one of the most important groups of bacteria on Earth. The Cyanobacteria have been important

Photosynthesis 1. Would you illuminate your house plants with a green light bulb? Why or why not? It would not be a wise choice to put a plant under a green light bulb. The reason for this is that due to the fact that the leaves are green they reflect green light. This shining green light onto the flowers will cause photosynthesis to stop. Since the light is being reflectd‚ the cells do not get any light. With out light they cannot carry out the everyday occurrence of photosyntesis. If the

Photosynthesis Maria Diaz March 12‚2012 Pre-Lab Questions 1. Which two variables are controlled in a similar manner? The two variables that can be controlled in a similar manner are CO2 & the light level. 2. How can you get the results to the investigation faster? You can get the results to the investigation faster by adjusting the speed at the bottom of the water weed simulation. 3. How will you be able to determine the rate of photosynthesis in this simulation

Investigation of the rate of photosynthesis of pondweed. Research question: How does the concentration of sodium bicarbonate relate to the amount of oxygen produced by Elodea (Canadian pond weed) in the process of photosynthesis? Hypothesis: If there is an increase in concentration of sodium bicarbonate the amount of oxygen produced will increase because the sodium bicarbonate concentration will increase the carbon dioxide levels. Independent variable- Concentrations of sodium bicarbonate (8%

plants would not be able to carry out photosynthesis (McKenney‚ Peffley‚ and Wilmington 49). Photosynthesis is responsible for providing the plant with nutrients it needs to thrive and grow. Without the proper nutrients‚ it is difficult for a plant to continue to live. Therefore‚ photosynthesis is necessary for a plant’s vitality. The goal of this experiment is to observe and identify the impact that light has on a plant. Hypothesis: If light affects photosynthesis in plants‚ then the plants growing

ADI Lab investigation: Photosynthesis Introduction and goals: In our experiment we worked with photosynthesis‚ which is the process of light energy‚ CO2 and H2O being turned into food for the plant. CO2+H2O+ Light energy=C6H12O+O2 is the formula for photosynthesis. Our group hypothesis was trying to determine weather o2‚ water‚ or the nutrients of the soil determine the mass of the water. The guided question was “Where does the mass that makes up a plant come from?” Methods:

Misael Acosta Photosynthesis Lab Report Ms. Rocha AP Biology 4th Period II. Intro/Background 1. In order for oxygen to be present photosynthesis must occur. Photosynthesis takes in light and CO2‚ and through a series of steps produces oxygen. Photosynthesis can be measured by either the disappearance of substrate or the accumulation of product. Examples include the production of O2 or the consumption of CO2. All the oxygen within the leaf disks will be removed before being placed

purpose of this lab was to investigate whether veins affect photosynthesis rate. It was predicted that having veins would decrease the rate because chloroplast might be less frequent due to the vascular tissue. For this experiment‚ 4 groups were set up: veins and no veins in CO2 solution‚ and veins and no veins in distilled water‚ the distilled water groups served as controls. These 4 groups were placed under a light bulb in order for photosynthesis to occur. No disks experience movement in the first 7

Hypothesis Testing Paper Team A PSY/315 July 7‚ 2014 Instructor: Regina Pendergrass Inside statistics‚ it has to be understood what hypothesis testing is to find and verify research to be studied. Hypothesis testing is a form of research that is used to show how a certain issue will end or how the researcher(s) think the issue will end in the environment that it is situated. The testing will show that even though an answer may form‚ it does not prove the answer is correct secondary to the
